One of my earliest memories is going to A. J. Burns Grocery with my mom. Albert, Eleanor, and Eddy always made us feel welcome and I never left without a candy treat. If dad was unavailable, Eddy would deliver the groceries to our home, adding to the excitement. I remember acquiring a black and white cat from Eleanor on one such visit – Tippy was a delightful addition to our family. This painting is from a photo taken circa 1960 provided by the James House Museum in Bridgetown and can be viewed at the museum this weekend during Cider Fest. The grocery store was later torn down to make way for the new post office. Note the house in the background. It looks the same today as it did 50 plus years ago. A. J. Burns Grocery is 6” x 8”.
FYI: my website has been updated and now contains all available painting. www.mnewmanfolkart.com
So good!
